Can't play the music or streamig webcam in Google Chrome?

As of this posting, Chrome doesn't install the required plugin automatically.

If Chrome is giving you a page of goggledygook instead of your music player, here's the solution.

Go to Microsoft's Technet website and install this plugin.
That should solve your problem. Note that this is a Firefox plugin but it also works for Chrome. This fix is what Google recomends.

That should allow you to listen to the music or watch a streaming camera.


If that doesn't work you can also try this.
